Mike/Family and all...
Thanks for putting on such a great race. The climbs were tough and the
single track was not just fun, but a real mudslinging experience this year.
All your work really made for a good tough race for riders. I struggled,
but really did have fun. Now we watch out for the bears that hang out near
the springs and eat the slow riders.

Thanks to all 260 guys and gals who came out to test their tire
choice and the slinging of the Mud. The day was nice with brief rain
showers 2 hrs into the event and the competition was fierce. Evan
Plews (Capitol Subaru) took home the overall by a 2 foot margin over
Erik Tonkin (S & M) with Barry Wicks (KONA) taking third. For the
Women Karen DeWolf took home the overall Pro/Expert race followed by
Alice Pennington at 1 minute. The best part of this year was all the
Singlespeeds and all the ladies. A normal Mudslinger will have 10%
female and this year it was approaching 15-20% and that is awesome.
Special thanks to Peak Sports, Specialized, Clif Bar,Thule, Great
harvest Bread of Corvallis---Bread for 250 please! Squirrels,
